It's been awhile



It's been quite some time since my last post!  So much has gone on, but isn't that the way it is with life; whether health issues, family matters, job responsibilities, or daily distractions, it seems there's always something to interrupt our plan for the day!  Nevertheless, I've found my way back and, rest assured, this blog, "Presumed Immunity", is going to get quite real in the upcoming months!  Stay with me; you won't want to miss a single post!  It's not every day we're afforded the opportunity to read about 'real life' events with a positive twist.  The majority of the people we come in contact with on a daily basis sugar coat their life, entrusting you with only the things they want you to know; when, unbeknown to them, you were hoping to find a connection with which you could relate.  In the end, you're left feeling even worse than you did from the start, thinking you're all alone in this old world, for no one could possibly empathize with what you're going through.  The reality of it all is you're not alone. I haven't been through all that I have in life to not use it to as a tool to encourage others!  I look forward to connecting with each and every one of you in the days to come.

Vaccine, Please

Wouldn't it be nice if there were a vaccine that would ensure the storms of life would simply pass us by?  Sadly, I must say there isn't.  On the bright side, if you're reading this, chances are you have recently gone through one of the many storms in life and are in search of something or someone to help ease the pain; to offer some sort of comfort to help calm your fears, and make you feel less alone. You, my friend, have come to the right place, for that is precisely my reason behind this and forthcoming posts. I, personally, have spent countless hours searching for answers...in a poem, a song, in prayer.  Alas, the many search engines...only to find a few candid accounts for which I could actually relate. In life, many storms will come our way.  Some are no fault of our own.  Some, however, are a direct result of the choices we make.  We're told all of our lives there are consequences for every decision we make, but far too often we fail to consider what those

If only children came with an instruction manual.

Parenting is no easy task. That's a given.  Our children come into this world a unique individual and we just have to wing it.  They come with no model handbook detailing their personalities, their likes or dislikes, or that offers a solution to every problem that could arise. Here's the deal: You raise your children the best you know how and assume they'll grow up to have the same morals and values as you.  After all, you raised them, right?  At least that's how I was, but to my dismay, my children grew up having only 'some of my values' and many ideas and beliefs completely apart from what I'd tried to instill in them up until that point. My children did not grow up around drugs or that type of environment, but that is the path they chose.  One of the most difficult things a parent will ever do is watch their child destroy everything good in their life, abandon their dreams, forsake their own children, and chase after that which could end their life wit
